Steam traps are an inherent part of all steam systems. They are necessary because if steam passes beyond its point of use and gets into the return system, it can cause gross inefficiency and expense.
As energy is extracted from steam in the form of heat, steam reverts back to a liquid state in the form of condensate. If this condensate is not removed as quickly as it is formed, the efficiency of the equipment that requires the heat energy is greatly reduced. In addition, there will be flooding of the equipment and a needless loss of capacity.
Steam traps must be sensitive, fast operating and designed with a large water handling capacity. They must also expel all dissolved air that is formed, and be able to discharge it in large quantities very rapidly — a prime requisite of a good steam trap.
Keystone Steam Supplies, based in Mississauga, Ont., carries several lines of steam traps for a variety of applications — from heating systems, sterilizers and laundry presses, to food processing, paper making, textile finishing, plastics and rubber manufacturing, and much, much more. Among the company’s offerings are:
Although Barnes & Jones and Edison products continue to be the major source for steam traps and steam trap repair parts (with parts available for more than 80 steam trap manufacturers and hundreds of models), Keystone Steam Supplies is also able to supply customers with steam traps and OEM parts from other major manufacturers.
